The oil-fired heater in the huts. My recollection is that each hut had two of them. Don't bump against one, drunk or sober, during the winter. |

The weather station on the ground floor of the air traffic/weather tower. This is where the pilots/aircrew got their weather briefing. |

Another room in the weather station complex. The radio on the shelf is where I heard the news of President Kennedy's assasination. |
